Answer: c) Secondary consolidation.
Explanation:
• Because the dissipation of the excess hydrostatic pressure doesn’t govern the secondary consolidation.
• For the second type of consolidation, Terzaghi’s consolidation theory is invalid since it can’t be in use to find the rate of secondary consolidation.
